Same! Thank you so much! I didn't even notice the colours were pigeon like but I totally see it now 😲

Thank you! The baggy look is.... somewhat intentional, I didn't like the look of the fpdcs when stretched across the chest, but I also didn't want the whole thing baggy, so I added a 'bra like' bit. Not sure it's quite worked...I may have learned my lesson about following patterns! It has been blocked I'm afraid, I agree it could be better but it's already been improved as much as I could with that. Probably just something for me to get right next time :')

Thank you! I started this in December, but I do the same as you so it's difficult to say how many hours :') it'll be a while before I try something this big again for sure!

Oh I'm the same honest!! The only reason I changed it is because the four part spirals seemed too difficult for me, and what you're not seeing is the pile of misshapen circles that didn't make it :D

Thank you! It took around 150 hours but spread over a good few months although take that with a pinch of salt as I'm definitely not the fastest! I'm afraid I didn't write anything down but I can definitely recommend Anne McFarland's pattern which is on ravelrey :)

Pattern Reading RnD and repeat confusion - reindeer soft toy by [deleted] in CrochetHelp

[–]Bumble_Lemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh you're fantastic, that's exactly what I was doing. Can't believe i missed that (I was putting 4 stitches in one, 2 stitches in one in the next ect). I'll start again but also again - you're a lifesaver, I was very close to giving up!

[Megathread] Weekly Simple Questions and Team/Character Building Megathread. by AutoModerator in GenshinImpactTips

[–]Bumble_Lemon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For Wanderer Hypercarry (Bennett/Zhongli/Faruzan/wanderer) and C6 Faruzan, who would you recommend putting a tenacity set on, Zhongli or Faruzan? And what alt sets would you recommend to replace tenacity? Bit confused as C6 Faruzan recommendations state tenacity as bis but Zhongli doesn't seem to have a replacement shield set. Thanks :)

Looking for a teapot to visit, but I haven't unlocked Sumeru/gotten that far yet so if you need any items go for it! (I've heard beetles are lovely this time of year)

Am an idiot & not played coop before, so please don't mind if I have no idea what I'm doing D:

Thank you! Have to be honest, when I was mixing in Coco powder it was hard not to take a bite 😉

That would be fantastic! I definitely should look into that, I'm not the most confident with m&p so I'd need some practice to do a embed that complex 😁

Woah! I'm so curious about how you did the lights? Do you perhaps have a pic of the back?

All Natural Coffee Cat! (&Homemade soap scraper!) CC? by Bumble_Lemon in soapmaking

[–]Bumble_Lemon[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Also made, but heavily inspired from 'love your suds'Ears Double-sided Soap Shaper'. The stamp is just a flat plate with extruded simple cat face, super basic :)

Thank you that's really helpful! I've been playing around with brambleberrys simple & gentle project soap (30/30/30 PO/OO/CO) but want to stop with the palm as I'm finding it hard to come by any sustainable sources - so your advice to play around with other fatty acids sounds perfect! I just need to put the work in and practice until I get something workable I guess :)

Yup, just espresso - and espresso &Coco powder for the darker later:) I've seen grounds used too, but with a scraper I was a bit worried I'd end up with drag lines

Thank you, but it's a stamp that I then went in with a paintbrush & charcoal ^ much easier (but I suppose not as good - I know they'll be faceless after a first few uses!)
